Summary

After seven appearances now on the podcast, your fan favorite is here to discuss a previously less talked about, but integral, part of her work: sex. It was at her "Art of Desire" workshop that I first met Jennifer, and through continued work and conversation with her personally and on the podcast I know that her work is transformative. So let's get into it, what to do when you hate sex. Dr. Finlayson-Fife is a coach and psychotherapist who works predominantly with members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this episode she lends her expertise on intimacy between married couples, with the foundational belief that it matters to more to belong to our sense of self, than to have sex. This episode is for you if you have developed emotional disinterest, disgust, even the physical inability to have sex. There is hope to rebuild. Learn how to let go of any "transactional" ways of thinking about sex and lean into your own sensual nature. It's not quick or easy, but it is possible to change this for yourself and your relationship! About a few other things... Have you ever wondered how to podcast as a busy mom?
